In a fit of madness I bought one of the current style dugout jackets (just like Lou Pinella wears!).
It's turned out to be one of the best garments I've ever owned. It's impervious to wind and is just warm enough that it's still the warmest thing I've had on and probably will be till the temp goes below 25 degrees.
The doofus factor doesn't bother me. I'm viewed as an iconoclast and wearing Cubs in Kansas, as opposed to band-wagoning for some champion pretty much says "fuck it...I don't care what you think."
I look forward to the day when we've won a few WS and everyone thinks I'm just jumping on like every dick in a Red Sox hat around here is now.
